FEATURES OF AMAN TAKAFUL INSURANCE

Aman Takaful Insurance (ATICO) provides all types of insurance products and services, The Company applies the principles of co-operative insurance which calls for all the policyholders to share the financial implications of any harm or damage befalling any of the policyholders.

The contributions (insurance premiums) paid by the policyholders form a fund from which the Company pays all claims; and after deducting all technical (insurance) reserves, provisions and operating costs expended on insurance operations, the resultant surplus becomes due and refundable to the policyholders.

ATICO maintains two separate accounts: one for the shareholders and another for the policyholders. As well as managing and investing their own funds, the shareholders manage and invest the policyholders' funds, on their behalf, in return for a share of the ensuing investment income.

Once the policyholders' share of investment income is added to the surplus from insurance operations, the Company distributes all or part of the total amount to policyholders annually in proportion to their contributions (insurance premiums) thereby reducing the actual cost of insurance to the policyholders.

The Company has a Sharia Supervisory Board which ensures that all transactions and operations, carried out by the Company, adhere fully to Sharia provisions and principles.
